Product information
General
Designed with beginners in mind, the Fazley Classic Series FTL218 electric guitar offers impressive value for money. This budget-friendly model has a classic T-style body, serves up ample sonic options, and is a great option when you're ready to take your first steps as an electric guitarist.
The Classic Series FTL218: Clear-Cut Sound
The Fazley FTL218 has a lightweight basswood body loaded with two single-coil pickups that deliver the classic 'twangy' sound expected of a T-style guitar. The fixed bridge only adds to the overall stability by boosting the resonance and tuning stability, while the traditional C-profile maple neck features a satin-gloss finish to ensure a smooth feel as you navigate the neck.
Finding the Perfect Guitar for You
As a complete beginner, it can be difficult to pick out your first electric guitar. Our advice? Pick a model you love the look of. This way, it's more tempting to pick it up and practise, which will help you progress much faster. That said, bear in mind that the FTL218 is an entry-level guitar, meaning the neck is relatively thick and the finish isn't as impeccable as that of more expensive models. If you're looking for a step-up in playing comfort, be sure to check out the Fazley Sunset Series or Outlaw Series electric guitars.

Fazley Classic Series FTL218 Black Electric Guitar
Incredible value! You would think that at this price the guitar would be awful. It isn't. Far from it. Highly recommended.

Fazley Classic Series FTL218 Black Electric Guitar
This isn't going to be a world touring guitar but for the incredible price it's a great run-around. Build quality is excellent, not afraid of it falling apart with bumps or drops. The sound is great for presumably unbranded pickups and the out of the box strings. The only issue I had is the fretboard made my fingers go black with about half an hour of playing and the metal frets (and fretboard) were quite grubby making it hard to make bends and slides but all should be resolved with a little cleaning. Overall a great guitar for the price (especially the sale price I got it for!)

If you are not a world touring guitarist, or not in a recording studio every week, why spend big money on fenders etc? .. If you are in a local band, a bedroom player, or just learning, get a cheap solid axe like this one. It's got a good weight, nice balance and feel, looks cool, but most importantly to me, it stays in tune and there's no crackles from the electrics (knobs or pick ups). For a tele copy, the price is a no brainer. Excellent deal.

Fazley Classic Series FTL218 Black Electric Guitar
Voor de prijs (zeker in de korting) is deze gitaar een geweldige deal. De intonatie en snaarhoogte waren bij aanschaf al prima. De gitaar is aan de zware kant maar het geluid resoneert goed. Dankzij het tijdloze Telecaster-ontwerp is deze gitaar zeer veelzijdig. De elementen klinken helder en zoemen bijna niet. Van country-twang tot heldere indie-pop, tot een overdriven rock-geluid, deze gitaar kan het prima. De afwerking van de frets aan de rand van de hals is een beetje scherp, maar niet storend tijdens het spelen. Verder had ik een probleem met de hoge E-snaar die niet gestemd bleef en uiteindlijk brak de snaar na een uur spelen. Maar dit is met een nieuwe set snaren opgelost. Ik zou aanraden gewoon gelijk bij aanschaf een nieuwe set snaren er op te zetten. Over het algemeen valt er, zeker voor de prijs, weinig te klagen en is het zeker een aanrader voor een beginnend gitarist of iemand die graag wil experimenteren met een Telecaster-stijl gitaar!

Fazley Classic Series FTL218 Black Electric Guitar
De vijf sterren zijn vanwege de zeer gunstige prijs ten opzichte van hetgeen je krijgt. Kritiek is er ook. De topkam is een beetje scherp, maar dat is met een vijltje zo verholpen. Het plastic beschermplaatje van de halsbevestigingsplaat heeft een scherp randje. Niets om je over op te winden, is zo verholpen en voor deze prijs kan het ook niet anders dan dat er wat steken vallen. Dit geldt ook voor de brug, waar de zadeltjes niet optimaal willen staan. Het hoeft niet direct maar zadeltjes gaan er af en vervang ik door messing. Veel beter trouwens voor het geluid ook. De snaren gaven bij mijn exemplaar een beetje af. Snel vervangen dus. De pickup's zijn voor een startende gitarist niet onaardig maar je kan voor deze prijs niet Verwachten dat ze top zijn. Nu het goede nieuws. De hals op mijn Fazley tele is alleen al het bedrag van aanschaf meer dan waard. Geen scherpe randjes, fantastische feel, geen gekletter. Kan wel een dun laklaagje gebruiken. Stemmechanieken hoef je voorlopig niet te vervangenIk. Ik ben eerlijk gezegd van die hals echt sprakeloos. Of alle exemplaren zo'n mooie neck hebben als deze weet ik natuurlijk niet. Na afstellen van snaarhoogte en intonatie, wat overigens bij iedere gitaar aandacht vraagt, is dit een leuke gitaar. Door die hals nog veel meer dan dat. Zou em zo weer kopen.
